I can't say I would describe it as a jerk or a lurch, but I do notice a bit of a surge from time to time when braking. It only seems to occur when I'm slowing down while in EV mode and the ICE starts up. It almost feels like I'm letting off and the brake and coasting or sliding for a moment, even though my foot never lets up. It scared me the first couple of times I felt it and I mashed the brake pedal harder but I've gotten used to it. Are you sure it's not just a normal transition between EV and ICE?
